While automating a system is the dream of all sysadmins, there is such
a thing as too much automation. Thankfully, this book recognises it.

It covers just about everything a sysadmin needs to know, using the
common Unix/Linux tool-chain available to all as well as the pitfalls
and how to ensure your systems stay secure.

It is based around the RedHat flavour of Linux (which is even better
for me given my servers at work are all RedHat 9 or Fedora boxes) and
demonstrates how to get the best out of the system. The book also covers
the sticky subject of if to patch or install from fresh to building an
RPM environment.

If you're a sysadmin - get this book, you won't be sorry. Highly
Recommended.
